Comparing object properties in c# [closed]

Answer 1

You can optimize your code by calling GetProperties only once per type:

public static string ToStringNullSafe(this object obj)
{
    return obj != null ? obj.ToString() : String.Empty;
}
public static bool Compare(T a, T b, params string[] ignore)
{
    var aProps = a.GetType().GetProperties();
    var bProps = b.GetType().GetProperties();
    int count = aProps.Count();
    string aa, bb;
    for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
    {
        aa = aProps[i].GetValue(a, null).ToStringNullSafe();
        bb = bProps[i].GetValue(b, null).ToStringNullSafe();
        if (aa != bb && ignore.Where(x => x == aProps[i].Name).Count() == 0)
        {
            return false;
        }
    }
    return true;
}
